A Casual Stylish Weekend











I live in jeans and t-shirts most weekends. I'm all about being comfortable, but when I'm hanging out with friends or have plans, I still want to look stylish! Enter the fashionable tee. I am loving this one from my friends over at Tobi. The choker tee trend is still going strong and I've officially hopped on board. I love this tee! It's perfect with distressed denim for a casual, trying but not trying too hard vibe. Plus it's striped and y'all know I love a good stripe. 

This tee is also a great basic to have in your closet. You can style this with jeans or skirts, wear it alone or layer it under a jacket/sweater. I've already worn this with a jean skirt and military jacket; and with my flares and a leather bomber. This is one piece that you can wear over and over which I love! Shop this look below!

Edgy Date Night // Valentine's Edition









Decided to bring a slightly edgier Valentine's look to the table. If you're looking for something a little different this Valentine's day, this is it! I've been super into leather jackets as of recent (as y'all know, because this one has already been on the blog - but I'm obsessed) and it's the perfect way to add a little sass to any outfit.

I snagged this gorgeous maxi from Tobi and instantly knew it would be the perfect match for a leather jacket. It's the prettiest burgundy color. This wrap dress is made of a long silky material with a thigh high slit and I felt like a total rockstar in it! It does have a small slip underneath, but as a girl who's 5'10... it's a little short, so I would wear some spandex shorts under this one to avoid any wardrobe malfunctions. This look is perfect for date night, galentine's or dinner out on the town! This outfit is super versatile and so easy to dress up or down. Change up the jacket, shoes or makeup and you have a totally different feel.

Wishing y'all a happy Valentines!

Valentine's Date Night










Valentine's day is just around the corner. I'll be spending the day with my sweet kiddos at work and then hanging my "Galentine's" that night - but I couldn't resist coming up with a date night look for those of you who aren't single this year.

If there's ever an excuse to pull out a romantic maxi dress, it's Valentine's. The holiday of love! And I'm a sucker for a cliche, so obviously I stuck to the typical color scheme. Wine is the perfect color for those of you who don't want to commit to a bright red or pink. It's one of my favorite colors to wear because it's so flattering on every skin tone. This particular dress from Tobi is so flowy and feminine, perfect for a date night. But I will say - all you fellow busty ladies, this dress definitely needed a bralette for me to feel covered enough to be comfortable. So I chose my favorite lace piece to layer underneath.

I worked with a local Nashville makeup artist to create a nude lip and smokey eye. My go-to for date nights because it's still sultry without being too much. You can check out Katheryn Golden here - her work is absolutely beautiful for those of you who are local!

And I have to give a special shoutout to my photographer, Lindsey Wilson. She is incredible! Her shots are sooo dreamy and her editing skills are out of this world. A talented beauty for sure!

Happy Valentine's week my friends!
